Boston College Law School Community Members Protests Mukasey as Commencement Speaker
Some law students, faculty, and alumni of Boston College Law School are speaking out against the administration's selection of Attorney General Michael Mukasey as the law school's 2008 commencement speaker, according to news reports. One alum started a group on Facebook called "waterboarding is torture" to discuss the issue. The name of the discussion group refers to the Attorney General's refusal, during his confirmation hearings, to declare that waterboarding constitutes torture.
In announcing Attorney General Mukasey's acceptance of the invitation to speak at commencement, Dean of the Boston College Law School John Garvey said "It is a singular honor for Boston College to have the Attorney General of the United States as our commencement speaker."

John McCain is trying to cheat and lie to win this election. It's just like when he cheated on his disabled wife and eventually divorced her for his rich, younger mistress.
It's also like the Keating 5, when McCain cheated the American tax payers out of hundreds of millions of dollars.
Since McCain can't really talk about his senate record (amnesty, etc.) he tries to play up his "character". I think his character is despicable. Cheating on and divorcing a crippled wife, wow that's bad.
